Conducting clinical research can help many patients; this is the powerful driving force behind my compassion to pursue clinical research as my career.
I received my first residency training in medicine in China, where I obtained my medical degree. After immigrated to the U.S with my parents, I completed my USMLE exams while working as a medical extern in Lenox Hill Hospital with Dr. Kirk Garratt in cardiology research and Dr. Yiming Yang, an interventional cardiologist, and later as an intern in cardiac nuclear stress lab in the Heart & Vascular Hospital at Clear Lake Regional Medical Center in Huston. Witnessing cardiac patients suffered from post–cardiac event depression, I decided to play an active role in bridging the clinical gap between cardiology and psychiatry. I completed my psychiatry residency training and geriatric psychiatry training at the New York Presbyterian Hospital /Columbia University Medical Center, and became board...show more content...
As more advanced EEG developed and in combined use of computational techniques, they become the ideal non–invasive and cost–effective research instruments for investigation of brain signals and autonomic reactivity in response to stimulation of the brain. I am interested in obtaining additional research training in utilizing EEG and ECG to conduct clinical trials in Alzheimer's disease, and applying computational skills to analyze EEG and ECG data to unfold the functional and neural mechanisms underpinning the neuropathology of the brain. My long–term research goal is to develop novel treatment interventions targeting these functional and neural mechanisms. I feel fortunate that two established research mentors I identified, Dr. D.P Devanand and Dr. Willman Fifer, who will devote their time and resources to help me to develop the expertise and skills necessary to become an independent clinical investigator in
I am writing to express my interest in the Master's of Education in Curriculum and Instruction with a concentration in STEM (stem, technology, engineering and mathematics) program that begins in August.
I currently hold a Bachelor's of Science in Computer Engineering Technology from Prairie View A&M University. My GPA from Prairie View A&M University wasn't my best work. At that time, I was young and on my own for the first time and I lived life as a young person. Prior to attending Prairie View A&M University, I was dedicated on receiving excellent grades in school, because of my hard work I graduated from high school number three in my class. In college, I made mistakes and learned from those mistakes. I was so elated to be the first person in my family to graduate from college. My interest in teaching led me to complete a teacher's deficiency plan from Texas Southern University. At Texas Southern University, my GPA is 3.88 which is a true reflection of my ability to successfully complete a challenging educational program. The GPA is a sign of my seriousness toward completing my goal....show more content...
I have taught for 18 years. I have 12 years of teaching elementary, as well as 6 years of teaching secondary math. In elementary and secondary, I have served in the capacity of Math Department Chairperson and Third Grade Lead Teacher. I have planned and developed academic schedules and intervention plans to ensure the success of students, in addition to my teacher's responsibilities. I have collaborated with principals and colleagues to ensure that the goals and objectives were met. I have presented various workshops and trainings in the areas of math and science. I believe that education is the most important tool that a person has for success. So, therefore it is important that every child should be given the best education

For as long as I can remember, I have loved numbers. Ever since elementary school, I remember explaining and tutoring my classmates in subjects related to math. Math was such a passion for me that in high school my professors entrusted me to provide supplemental tutoring to my classmates. Moreover, while inhigh school, I participated in math competitions and worked on research projects related to business. I always wanted to pursue a college education abroad because I believed I would be fully equipped to help others and to become a better professional. Therefore, when I graduated from high school I applied to a program to come to the USA. There is still a lot that the future holds and the Investment Management Fund program would provide me the opportunity to gain hands–on experience managing a real investment portfolio.

Last semester, I competed for the PricewaterhouseCoopers Competition challenge, in which I was able to work with three women and come with a solution for a problem a company was facing while considering their financial goals and objectives. Moreover, I also interned as Financial Planning Intern for The M Group and Associates. Through this position, I was able to learn more about financial services including investment planning, asset management, employee and executives benefits accounts, retirement planning, and many others. I was able to contact customers and explain different financial services available as well as their benefits and limitations. My Security Analysis Portfolio Management (FIN 421) allowed me to use MS Excel to do portfolio rebalancing, compute accumulated real retirement savings for different return realizations, implement rick parity strategy for backtesting, and be a portfolio manager for a large pension fund and use mean variance analysis to allocate funds across major asset Get more content
Graduate Admissions Committee, Freshman year of undergraduate school was an overwhelming adjustment for me. I had chosen to attend college at Edinboro University, two hours from home and for the first time had to develop my own academic schedule, social schedule, and delegate time for studying and projects. Unfortunately, my academics reflect the strain I was under while trying to find my balance. I don't consider this a weakness but a strength as I spent the rest of my academic career trying to make up for the academic mistakes of my first semester. My personal ambition to complete my degree persevered even in my junior year when I experienced a personal tragedy when my aunt, whom I looked up to as a second mother, passed away.

Synthesizing medicine from a leaf sounded magical when I was a teen. My passion for science began after watching a documentary on Discovery Channel.
I could not ingress the FacultГ© de MГ©decine et de Pharmacie in Haiti due to political issues but hearing at church "don't surrender, fight for your dream, God is faithful!" Draw me strength to continue. I moved to the Dominican Republic to study pharmacy. Even though I was not very fluent in Spanish in the beginning I kept a high GPA, focused on the purpose.
After surviving the earthquake in January 2010 in Haiti (on vacation), I felt as a child of hope for whom giving up is not an option. Knowing that a pharmacist has a reliable role in the community, and being aware that my country is in need for professionals like myself, I returned definitely to Haiti after my studies to work and I founded an association helping socially disadvantaged people, teaching them civics, motivating the youth to have an academic formation. That organization was my second passion until the day some people started to threaten my life on the basis that I was acting against the government. Leaving my family and everything behind,I came to this country rich in opportunities and rewards for those willing to work hard....show more content...

Moreover, upon visiting the campus I got the feeling that it is a very inclusive environment and a great place to study. The famous reputation of the NOVA pharmacyschool satisfies my interest to become a graduate of your outstanding institution. I feel confident that a degree from your university will give me a one–upmanship. Best
Pursuing a master's degree in Human Resources Management is something I owe to myself as a professional. As an immigrant, obtaining a Bachelor's degree was a great challenge, and achieving a graduate degree is also a commitment to others as an example of the contribution Hispanic women can make to our society.
During my career as a human resources professional I have had the opportunity to be exposed to the diversity of several industries like Health Care, Manufacturing and Digital Content. These interactions allowed me to understand the role played by human resources, regardless of industry or line of business, is vital for any organizational success. Without people organizations would not function. My work experience has also provided me...show more content...
My best attributes are my sense of ownership, responsibility and a genuine interest in others, which makes me love what I do. As an eager learner, I appreciate every opportunity to learn new things, and how to see the same things in a different way, and from different angles. I am an individual with a strong urge to innovate and drive for solutions, and I have led to the adoption of new/improved people processes, systems, policies, and procedures, in organizations where I have worked. My personal accountability for results and my integrity are respected and unquestioned among my peers and this is something I consider a must for a human resources professional.
My goal is to further develop my career, and grow up to aleadership position within a leading firm that places priority on professionalism and considers their human resources as one of their main assets. I have decided to strive for the master's program in Human Resources Management because it fits the profile of my career goals.

Growth is necessary for successful students and the desire to learn should be a powerful driving force for those who intend on advancing to professional programs. Challenges are important for self–improvement, development, and overall growth. Through growth and challenge, I was able to change my study habits and become the student that I am today. I allowed science to change who I am as a student and I intend to pursue my dreams of becoming a doctor and continue using science to help others. Science has been my passion since high school, but curiosity has been my passion for as long as I can remember. I was naturally interested in Biological sciences and immediately began to explore the inner workings of the human body in my high school Physiology course. Science provides explanations for the questions I have always had and is a great opportunity to help others with this knowledge. Despite my...show more content...
Immediately I had planned some short–term goals for myself: Get straight A's and letters of recommendation for professional schools. The following semester, I achieved my goal of straight A's for the first time in college. The next step was to find others who believed in me. I began to spend more time with professors such as Dr. James Kumi–Diaka, my Cancer Biology professor, and Dr. Harry Lyons, my Human Morphology and Function professor, who both wrote me letters of recommendation. Currently, I am in the process of attaining my long–term goal of obtaining a career in the field of medicine. I plan on attending a graduate program to help strengthen my application to professional school and prove that I can be successful in challenging science courses at graduate level difficulty. All I need is the opportunity to showcase the study techniques I've learned and I believe that professional programs will be impressed with the changes that I have

Have you ever wonder what it's like to play football for your homeschool under the lights on friday night? The weeks practice was strong and coaches thought we were more prepared than ever.

Once coach coffman comes in to talk to us we all know it's time to be serious. There's something about the bark of coaches voice that gets everyone focused and ready to play a serious game of football. We absolutely know it's time to work and buckle down as soon as we have to play the game. It's absolutely electrifying to be on that field during your senior year when you know this is your last chance to make things happen. Everyone knows their job once the game starts. If everyone that is on that field does there job and sticks to their responsibilities we would be fine. If the team plays with their heart even when things go bad and not point fingers but instead work as a team and don't give up you will succeed. Second quarter comes around everyone on the team is working hard. Then a play gets blown up and there's an interception how does the team react. Instead of giving up we stop there offensive roll at the one yard line. This is when things are most serious and there is no room for error. This is all happening during a very important game against IHC the stakes couldn't be higher Ihc isn't in our league. Last year we beat the so why couldn't we this year. All players and coaches are focused. We score a touchdown in the last moments of the Get
I am filling out the Federal Financial Aid Suspension Appeal in regards to personal reasons I endured during the Fall of 2006 and the Spring of 2010 semesters. In 2006, I regret to say that I was not fully prepared to take on the responsibility of going to school full time. I did not have the proper resources to be successful. During the fall of 2006, I lacked a reliable vehicle and was unable to get transportation to and from school. This greatly affected my ambition to further my education and drove me to concentrate on working full time and taking care of my financial obligations. I soon found myself with a great job at Cessna and began the procedure in purchasing a home. I decided during this time that it would be ideal to go back to school and achieve my Associates degree in Accounting. I returned to Butler CommunityCollege in the summer of 2009 and took successful steps in achieving my goals. From the Summer of 2009 until the Spring of...show more content...
I also have a job that is flexible and supportive of my decision to return to school and finish my Accounting degree. If you were to look at my academic history you would see that even through challenging circumstances that have halted my education, I always tried my hardest and I still have an overall GPA of 3.0. In those two semesters, I failed to live up to my potential. Instead of giving up, I would like the opportunity to finish what I started in 2006. This time around I have more real life experience that prepares me for those challenging situations that can come around the corner. I have learned how to push forward instead of back out. I have learned to strive towards the future instead of stress about the present. I would be very appreciative and grateful if you would lift the suspension from my financial aid and allow me the help I need to continue my education at your

Intellectual Independence is something that extends beyond formal education; it is an internal desire to learn, a pushing force to achieve academic excellence. It complements my desire to exceed standards and learn for the sake of learning. I am an avid reader and have developed an affinity for non–fiction literature discussing society, politics, or history. For example, I recently read Moral Politics: How Liberals and Conservatives Think by George Lakoff. Its thesis is that liberals and conservatives have different perceptions of morality which dictates their political leaning. Literature, like Moral Politics, intrigues me because it takes a typically mundane subject like political socialization and influences the way I view the world. I am drawn to the Honor Program's commitment to Jesuit Faith and Mission. I am strongly interested in studying how religion affects decisions within our culture and society. Regarding mission, I enjoy working with kids. I worked as a mentor through the Diocesan Youth Council and as a counselor at a summer camp. I am particularly interested in the Mother Seton Academy weekly service program. Loyola's location in Baltimore provides a great environment for intellectual stimulation and involvement in Get

The prospect of a career with such broad and exciting potential really attracts me to this area, and I believe that I have the skills needed for a successful journalist; the passion, determination, adaptation, open–mindedness, and communication skills which would be my sword in the journalism world.
I also have a particular interest in international reporting and photojournalism. I am inspired by the works of Atilla Girgin, who has maintained his position of chairman of the news department at Turkish Radio and Television (TRT) for a long time. He was also my professor during the first semester of university.
Questions regarding decisions about one's career are usually hard to be answered since those decisions will probably affect an important portion of one's life. I have three basic guidelines for shaping my career. First, my career should be on a work I love; second, it should be full of excitement, and third, my job should maintain my mental satisfaction. Therefore, new media in journalism is best fit for me. With undergraduate course as my base and relevant knowledge in the field of journalism, I now desire to pursue Master of Journalism majoring in New Media. After my Master's degree I wish to pursue doctoral studies in the same field which would enable me to realize my potential to the
No one in my immediate family has ever even had the good fortune to apply to a graduate school, but I have always contemplated going to graduate school even before I began my undergraduate career. That is the kind of person I am always strategizing my next plan of action. More importantly, I have always understood the importance of having a master's degree. While I have always had my heart set on attendinggraduate school, I was previously unsure about the specifics of how I would earn my master's degree. Now I am confident that getting a Master of Health Administration from Johns Hopkins University would help me accomplish much more than simply my career goals.
There are 3 fundamental reasons why I am applying to this program. First, this program would help me achieve my career goal.

By the time I graduate I will have been a part of the Zhu lab for 2 years. At the Zhu lab, I have been assigned to numerous projects, but the one that stands out is "Drug Transporter–Mediated Drug–Drug Interaction between Metformin and LCZ696". I was involved in every part of this project; my colleagues and I designed this experiment, conducted it, troubleshot it, analyzed the results, and even presented our findings at a symposium. The project used techniques like mass spectroscopy, high–perfromance liquid chromatography, and tissue cultures to observe the drug–drug interaction. While there were numerous obstacles because I had never participated in a project like this, and there were times when the experiment was not working and we had to troubleshoot the problem, at the end of the day, we always persevered. These projects were incredibly daunting, but, ultimately, gratifying, and allowed me to develop fundamental research

Either you work now and play later or you play now and pay later. I choose to work now because I want to inspire my family to do the same. At an early age, I learned that if I wanted to be successful, then I would have to fend for myself. Today, I am proud to say that I have overcome all odds by achieving the success that I desire. My childhood was traumatic, and I am thankful that the door to my childhood is locked, sealed, and chained. I am one of five children, and I was raised by my mother. At the age of six, I fled with my mother and siblings to Arkansas in order to escape the abuse of my father. He was going to kill us; however, we were able to escape before he could. Throughout my second–grade school year, we flew back and forth to Hawaii to testify against my father. The courts convicted him and sentenced him to ten years in prison for the physical and sexual abuse that he inflicted upon my siblings and me. As a result, my mother was left to raise us alone. Life was not much better with my mother, for she abused us both mentally and physically. The mental abuse I suffered cut far deeper than any physical abuse ever could, so...show more content...

My SSO family loved me, encouraged me, listened to me, and pushed me. If I was not in class, I was in the SSO building working on my studies.

To be able to share the world I had been privileged to have already spent time in with these young brilliant minds was truly an honor. I was able to work with them and coach them on scientific technique while they taught me a lot about the trials marginalized groups face in the sciences. I feel similarly about my work as a math and science tutor. The STEM subjects often seem unapproachable and are unfortunately shrouded in gender and racial biases that can affect success. I know, as a young woman, I have faced this and to help others shake off this stigma and find a love for these subjects so near and dear to my heart, has been a passion and will continue to be a lifetime goal. I have learned a great deal about the importance of sharing ones passions and supporting others in overcoming adversities. These opportunities have taught me that listening and opening dialogues on issues that many people face will make the STEM fields a more open and inclusive place. I hope that I can bring my love for science and the environment to CU–boulder and that I can be a friend and ally to anyone who feel marginalized in these
